Esbjerg, 16:00. The winter grey is back. And it's already sundown anyway. 😐
The terminus of the 70k city looks like a countryside station. But there is a 7Eleven. Short refill stop (DKK 20 - my Swiss mind cannot comprehend!), before the same unit takes me and only a few other passengers further North.
#NebulousNorthSkjern, 17:15. It's pitch black. And the station is absolutely deserted. Isn't this supposed to be peak hour? 🤔
I'm the only one waiting 25 mins for the Holstebro connection. Quick stroll through the 8k village. Lights everywhere and at least 3 interior design-ish shops. Priorities done right. 🥰🇩🇰

#NebulousNorth17:30. The last train for today. And finally a decent one - a "Desiro" of Midtjyske Jernbaner. Also not the newest of units, but very well looked after. 🥰
And again: Absolutely empty. Never more than 3 passengers on board, if I'm not mistaken.

#NebulousNorthToday's journey ends at another completely deserted station at 18:30. It really surprises me, how empty all the trains are. And still they run every hour, all day long, even in this rural corner.
Tell me again how Denmark is "not a railway country"?! 🇩🇰

#NebulousNorthGod morgen from Holstebro.
An MJ "Desiro" arrives and the GoCollective service to Vejle is delayed by 24 minutes. But I don't care, my Interrail will remain inactive today as I'm going to take a bus. Many of which are electric here, btw.

#NebulousNorthBut before we leave, a closer look to the station might be of interest. Holstebro is a Diesel node, but the OLE rails you can see above the track are the charging infrastructures for Midtjyske Jernbaner's soon to be phased in battery trains ⚡.
More on that later today.Might be of interest for @jon and @AndiBarth, who were discussing a possible Tønder electrification yesterday.

#NebulousNorthFour passengers on my hourly bus, two of which alight in the first few minutes. And oh boy, does the hashtag live up to its full potential today!

#NebulousNorthOr.. does it? I might be in for a big surprise today! An absolutely wonderful bus ride in any case.

#NebulousNorthUh-oh! I'm definitely in for a surprise today: The sun burns the fog away and look what awaits me at Lemvig station! A "Lynette" railbus from 1983! 😍
They are currently phased out, I didn't know for sure if some of them do still run. Apparently, they do. 🥰

#NebulousNorthI have been here before on last year's #DanskDiesel trip, but we didn't get a decent photo as it was raining. Which really bothered me afterwards. And this is now the very last chance! To give you an impression of how much of a close call this is: Apparently, H.M. the King will inaugurate the new battery trains this Friday (!) and there will be a little farewell ceremony for the Lynette. Phew!

#NebulousNorthLynette love. 🧡
Oh, and Midtjyske Jernbaner: Can we please have a scarf from this moquette? 😊

#NebulousNorthOff we go. Again, there's nobody in my carriage, as we trundle through the empty landscapes. The diesel engine hums quietly and the heating radiates that cosy and slightly too warm heat, that you only find in old trains. Absolutely perfect! 🥰 This alone was worth the trip.

#NebulousNorthOn the walk to what looked like a possible photo spot from the train, the last bits of fog vanished just as I started taking pictures of it. As if I disturbed the fog demons...

#NebulousNorthVoilà! 🥰
A photo of a Lynette in the sun (well, at least in faint sunlight) was definitely not on my list, when I left home on Monday.

#NebulousNorthThere is another thing nearby, that I really wanted to have a look at: The Sea! 🥰 🌊
I have no idea why I can't get enough of it. Is it, because I'm from a rather crowded, landlocked country?

#NebulousNorthThe sun's gone, but here's the new kid on the block! Seven of these angry birds..., no, wait, I mean: Siemens Mireo battery-electric units will take over the Holstebro-Skjern (65km) and Vemb-Thyborøn (55km) lines very soon. That will not only cascade the Lynettes out, but very probably also the Desiros.

#NebulousNorthLast one for today. Meanwhile, the light conditions became quite challenging. Hard to edit this one on the fly, will need my screen at home. But hey, another Lynette! 🥰

#NebulousNorthAfternoon tranquillity.

Afternoon tranquillity.
#NebulousNorthBack at Victoria Street Station. The tags inside the little hut tell teenage summer love stories from endless holidays in the many summer cottages around here.🥹 But summer feels somehow light years away right now in December grey. I requested the stop and the train takes me back to Lemvig.

#NebulousNorthFull house at Lemvig and a closer look at the charging infrastructure. ⚡
Impressive that a little railway with about 6 trains does the whole testing and builds the know-how for the whole industry and what will maybe become a nationwide programme. But also sensible, as this is an isolated line with track and train in one hand.

#NebulousNorthBut... Look at the huge difference in size! 😳
And this translates directly to weight: A Mireo (93t) is about 50% heavier than a Lynette (63t). I really hope that they did consider, what that means in terms of permanent way maintenance on a light line like this. 😬

@staff if it weren't for all the sport bots that jam the feed it'd have been cool to keep seeing it

@staff to be fair one can say the same about the Trending feed, in the sense that it features a pretty homogeneous side of Mastodon that focuses on the same subjects over and over (e.g. exclusive focus on U.S. issues, technology, cats when people have other pets or none at all, etc.) and this can discourage people with more varied interests or lived experiences beyond that. We should be encouraging more diversity of interests beyond those things. The Trending feed does not sufficiently do that, despite the lack of an algorithm.
(this is kind of tangential to my earlier point about moderation, but I still feel it is worth mentioning)

@untilted We certainly do, but the live feeds on mastodon.social are things posted in the last few seconds, it is essentially a pre-moderation view.
It is neither the best way for newcomers to find their community, nor much use to many established users. If people want to drink straight from the firehose, they can, but we do not recommend it.
-
@staff I use to use the everything everywhere feed, but more like how one views an extremely fast moving river, it was for watching it all scroll by and not really absorb.
-
@staff Surely you can provide a better experience on your server by moderating the users who regularly post spam and other offending content on the live feeds a little better instead of having to resort to disabling the live feeds...

RE: https://mastodon.social/@staff/115849914607258480
As previously announced, live feeds are now disabled on our servers by default.
We don't think they provide a good experience on our server, but feel free to reach out to us if you'd like to still see them.
